Brimming with apples and spice, this pie with its sweet crumb topping is a crowd-pleaser!
Pretzel Challah
The crusty ends are favorites on their own, and the chewy middle invites all sorts of spreads. The crunchy topping of salt crystals adds a special kick to all of it!
Pink Lentil Soup with Lamb Kofte
This soup tastes just like an Israeli kebab shop or, as restaurant critic Craig LaBan once wrote, "Jerusalem in a bowl."

This recipe creates moist, crusty challah that has accompanied many Shabbat meals and family parties. The dough can be braided into two challahs, or formed into small challah rolls.
Stuffed Peppers with Rice
Stuffed vegetables are hugely popular in Israel and this is a dish you can find at workingman restaurants and Shabbat tables across the country. On Fridays we can smell it cooking throughout our building. I prefer small peppers for stuffing as opposed to the large ones.
Pretzel Rolls
Crusty and chewy with big crystals of salt – these rolls are always a special treat!
Israeli Green Salad with Strawberries
Ramat Hasharon, where I live, was once famous for its strawberry fields.
Barbecued Pizza
Make Shabbat dinner a family activity with this recipe — after adults do the grilling, let kids do the decorating. Combine fresh mozzarella with summer fresh tomatoes and herbs on a pizza crust that's cooked on the grill.
